Breathe Deep

Here you collapse, crying alone Does the ocean make you feel Like all your desperate appeals Break futilely as waves On impassive stone? Let me shake this icy rain off you Let me drape this purple cape I made you On your sorrow Your blue eyes shouldn't be so overcast So breathe deep Inhale the sea breeze Recall that all your darkness That you see Is weaker than my love for thee Take a deep breath Let me quell your loneliness Perceive the seagulls as they crest The endless thermals that buffet them Effortless As the sun rises in celestial bliss I see your suffering made manifest Our natures promise goodness with an ethereal kiss But in the burning sand you can't help feeling worthless Like a seabird with broken wings You're a saint who forgot what joy means You wonder why I would be the man For a shell like you But it's your pearls I love, you clam! So breathe deep Inhale the sea breeze Recall that all your darkness That you see Is weaker than my love for thee Take a deep breath Let me quell your loneliness Perceive the seagulls as they crest The endless thermals that buffet them Effortless When the ocean's blue eternity Sends a tide to take our white beach Then kiss me without uncertainty Heed the ageless wisdoms as they preach Oh, inhale peacefully your final sleep And maybe as we hold us, peaceful songbirds, soundless We will number our blessings, grains of white sand, countless And we'll find our fears, monsters of the deep, groundless So breathe deep Inhale the sea breeze Recall that all your darkness That you see Is weaker than my love for thee Take a deep breath Let me quell your loneliness Perceive the seagulls as they crest The endless thermals that buffet them Effortless Breathe Deeply...
